Since the night they both agreed to rekindle their friendship, they found themselves talking to each other every night like the iwasan game didn't happen at all, without letting her best friend Frencheska know. And looking back they both just laugh at it.

Two weeks after, the president of the philippines lifted general community quarantine to modified general community quarantine Elmo asked Julie if he could pay her and her family a visit.

"Ma? Grabe naman po kayo sa akin, Ma. Para naman kayong nakakita ng multo sa facial expression nyo po."

" It's surprising naman talaga... You wake up at this early, wala ka namang trabaho? Anong ginagawa mo dito?"

" I'm baking, Ma."

" Baking? For who? Ang aga ah. "

" For who talaga, Ma? Di ba pwedeng gusto ko lang? Hahaha. "

" Hay naku, Julie Anne. Kilala kita, tigilan mo ako. May bisita ka? Sabihin mo na para utusan ang papa mo bumili ng mga kakailanganin."

" Okay na po Ma. I asked kuya and ate Sue na po."

" So... sino ang nakapag pag gising sa dalaga ko ng ganito kaaga? Bumalik ba ng pilipinas si Kim?"

" Kim? Hindi po Ma. Actually, matagal niyo na pong kilala. Elmo, want to pay us a visit po, Ma. "

That made her mother's eyes widened.

" Pardon, sino?"

" Ma, alam kong narinig nyo po. Haha. "

Julie shook her head, laughing at her mom.

" Di nga... Sino? Kaya pala iba ang mga ngiti eh... Nag usap na ba kayo ng masinsinan? Baka mamaya---"

" We talked na po, Ma, I think it's been two weeks na rin since we started talking---"

" Julie Anne, alam mong pag love life mo na ang usapan, hindi kami nakikialam ng papa mo... Unless kung kinakailangan, please wag nang tatanga-tanga. "

Marivic gave some warning to her daughter, she knew when her daughter was in love nagiging bobo ito.

" Grabe naman kayo sa akin, Ma. It's not like he's courting me naman, Ma. It's a friendly visit lang po, ganun. "

" I wasn't born yesterday, Julie Anne. I know sa ligawan pa rin mapupunta yan, at hindi ka ba nadala sa ginawa niya noon? Ano bang pinagkaiba sa ginawa niya sa ginawa ni Ben? Wala, di ba? They're the same...they both cheated on you. "
